Be Happy Summer Camp – Week One, Activity Two – Mind Navigator Badge

The Mind Maze

Help children explore simple, practical ways to manage busy thoughts and overwhelming emotions with our The Mind Maze. As children make their way through a fun, camp-themed maze, they'll complete calming challenges that encourage mindfulness, emotional awareness and self-regulation.

Along the way, they'll practise gentle coping strategies such as breathing exercises, noticing their surroundings, positive thinking and gratitude, helping them discover the "mind navigation tools" they can use whenever they feel worried, overwhelmed or lost in their thoughts.

Perfect for classrooms, wellbeing sessions, nurture groups or one-to-one support, this engaging activity encourages children to slow down, build emotional resilience and develop lifelong self-regulation skills.

This activity can also be used as a standalone printable, so you can use it even if you're not taking part in this year's Summer Camp - simply discard the first page and enjoy!
